SPRING HAS SPRUNG.

nj u DUNALL
The Spring has come again the joyful Spring
Mrs. Norton.
Now Winter wraps his tattered cloak
About his shaking form,
And goes, with sour, reluctant look,
Ger other clirnes to storm;
While DER the reconstructed land
Are various signs outhupg,
BY which we are to understand
That gentle Spring has sprung.
Tho brook hath broke the icy hu h
Enforced by winter keen,
And nature, with artistic brush,
Now paints the landscape green;
Upon the boughs the buds come out
Where late icicles hung,
Which goes to prove beyond doubt
That gentle Spring has sprung.
Sweet poets now ecstatic rave
About each rural scene,
And send sentimental stave
To deck some magazine;
Throughout the country, far and near,
Their gladstone songs are sung,
And thus we're sadly made aware
That gentle Spring has sprung.
The newborn chicken struts about
With consequential puff,
For well 1t knows its counted out
Until it's old and tough;
The tramp now to the country hies.
With guile upon his tongue,
And thus we're made to realize
That gentle Spring has sprung.
The housewife, in her glory now,
The house turns inside out,
Her lord, with anger on his brow,
Is quickly put to rout;
While all around the backyard fence
The whitewash brush Is flung,
Which Is conclusive evidence
That gentle Spring has sprung.
